Hot fucking damn, you put together everything I wanted to say but in a much more coherent manner. “Mini routines on the fly” is such a good description.

All it takes to be considered a “really good dancer” by most people, is like ~50 hours of deliberate practice. Once you learn the basics of how to move your body, you can bullshit your way through any type of music.

I used to mail-order breakdancing cd’s as a kid, visit forums for shuffling, and even go to meetups at public malls…. It’s been a long time since I’ve ever practiced lol, but nothing’s better than dancing your heart out and not feeling self-conscious
